Zoolander takes tour of the Santiago Bernabeu

Film star Ben Stiller has taken a tour of the Santiago Bernabeu as part of his tour promoting the new Zoolander 2 film.

The film, the sequel of the one released in 2001, is being premiered across Europe with the cast including Stiller, Penelope Cruz, Owen Wilson, Justin Theroux and Will Ferrell all attending various events in recent weeks.

A number of promotional events have taken place in Madrid this week ahead of the February 12 premier and Stiller took a tour of the iconic Santiago Bernabeu in character as Derek Zoolander.

The actor was photographed in the trophy room with the haul of trophies Los Blancos have won down the years. He also posed for photos with his famous ‘Blue Steel’ pout on the pitch before doing his best at keepy-uppies on the field too.

And while many Madridistas may have been hoping for a last minute deal on deadine day, Stilller was the only one to take to the field to be presented with the famous white jersey. While Zoolander may push Ronaldo all the way when it comes to ensuring he’s looking his best at all times, we’re are pretty sure Zinedine Zidane is happy to continue with the Portugal frontman in the striker’s role.
